Thank you.

Some people say there are no more
frontiers left for us to conquer.

But then again, some people still go out
into the wilderness in search of their

dream.

MacGyver!

Hey! Mac!

Trouble is, sometimes that dream can
become a living nightmare.

Oh, I miss you, MacGyver.

Oh, elegant as ever.

As beautiful as ever. And oh, so sexy.

How did Bill ever see you before I did?
Oh, just lucky, I guess.

Yeah, I'd say.

How is it?

Terrific.

Really.

And how's the project?

Wonderful, exciting.

And Bill says it's going to make us
rich.

Always said you're my best friend.

Okay, Thor, higher up.

Lower down.

Okay, Bill.

Hold the drilling bit steady.

Hey, I got it.

Hey, come on, let's go. That'll take us
down to about 1,800 feet.

Yeah, maybe we'll have to go down
another 2,000.

You got to have faith.

I smell hydrocarbons. There's oil down
there, son.

I was in the neighborhood.

What can I say?

It's good to see you. You too.

It's been a while.

Master of the understatement, it's been
a while. What was it, Sumatra?

Yeah. Flew straight in from Texas, all
duded up in your fancy hat, your 10

-gallon boots, put on fire, didn't even
know where Sumatra was. I had jet lag.

From heavy-duty partying. Yeah. Well, I
met you, hon. Oh, sure, sure.

Was he as hopeless a liar when he was a
kid, huh?

I'd be lying if I said no.

Mm-hmm. Hey, I'm about to get my
manners.

is just being modest.

Listen, I got some more picking up to
do.

Thanks for dropping down.

Well, this is what you gave up hell
fighting for.

You know, wildcat drilling isn't exactly
the greatest way to make a living. Make

a living? Mac, if today's course sample
check out with geological reports you

brought me, man, we're sitting on an
empire.

You want to buy a share?

Yeah, line it up here, Pete. Yeah.

This is our area. That could be our gas
pocket.

Where's that striation overlay?

Let's see if it matches up. Laura, look,
look.

Oh, you're just amazing.

A man of many, many, many, many, many,
many talents.

I'll say.

Fresh coffee. Get it while it's hot.
Bill?

Thanks, hon.

Pete? Oh, thank you.

Put the light on, would you?

Oh, sure.

Let's see how that lower level juts out.
Yeah, but we've gone deeper than that

already.

Uh, fuse blew again. Oh, no.

Confused box?

Uh-huh.

See, I was right, Pete.

Where's that second overlay?

Well, there's the problem.

Got a spare fuse?

You're holding it.

I tried to make do with shorter orders
on the supply runs.

Fuses, batteries for the radio.

It's kind of catching up to me now.

Yeah? Oh, thanks.

Well, things are kind of tight, huh?

Yeah, kind of.

What are you doing with that gum
wrapper?

Well, maybe we can get around this fuse
problem temporarily.

How can I come up with money-saving
ideas like that?

Listen, Laura.

When Bill got hurt, how bad was it?

I thought he was going to die.

Three months in the burn ward.

It was my worst nightmare.

So he quit?

He was the best, you know.

Sure. And probably tough enough just to
last forever.

But I'm not.

And I asked him to make a choice.

Help fighting?

Or us?

You chose right.

I don't know.

We put all the money we saved into it.

Every cent that we could borrow.

Nothing's left.

It's all out there.

This land and that Derek.

If this doesn't work out, Bill will go
back to hell fighting.

And... I...

Hey,

Bill, look at this. It all checks out.
Let's see.

There it is.

That's it.

Oil.

Wah!

Da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da-da.

He'll be all right.

You know, you got yourself a simple
fracture there. Got off lucky.

Yeah, I'm a real lucky guy.

Couldn't get any better.

Of course, you know, we're going to have
to give it a pretty good yank,

straighten it, and splint on it.

Well, what are you waiting for, Doc?
Let's do it.

Oh, I was just wondering.

You have any doubt you can do it? Oh,
no, that's no problem. It has to do with

Curie's Law.

Curie's what?

Curie's Law?

Yeah. You know, the one that says the
magnetic susceptibility of a

paramagnetic substance is inversely
proportional to the absolute

temperature. You know.

Magnetic susceptibility to... On the
other hand, don't think about

it.

You're real slick, MacGyver.

Well, naked dancing girls might have
been a little better, but, you know.

Just let everything flow, okay?

Okay.

Good man.

I get the feeling we're not rich
anymore.

You know, you guys are losing me here.

And there are all kinds of hydrocarbons
coming out of that hole.

You know, with my limited experience,
that generally means there's a hole down

there. I agree.

Just wait for the supply plane, hire a
firefighting crew.

The credit ought to be good with all
that oil coming in.

Not inside the next two weeks.

Which is when our lease runs out.

No way we can get a crew here inside two
months.

Well, maybe we ought to consider putting
it out ourselves.

With what?

Know-how.

Ingenuity.

Dynamite wouldn't hurt.

The last time I did that kind of thing,
I used $5 million worth of equipment and

explosives. We don't have any gear.

The dynamite blew away yesterday.

The builder used dynamite up a
ten-strike mine.

Where's that?

It's an old strip mining operation.

Played out.

Six, seven years ago.

Spandit. Maybe they left some stuff
behind.

We could maybe do it.

No.

I almost lost you once, Bill.

You made me a promise.

No more hell fighting.

No, Laura.

I've worked with Bill before.

I bet you I could handle it.

With Bill backing me up, of course.

He wouldn't have to go in?

No way.

Who needs him?

I can do that part myself.

Providing we find some dynamite up at
the mine.

Listen, does that truck run?

Damn well better.

That mine's 40, 50 miles out of the side
of the hills.

Well then, why don't we take off at
first light?

This road would definitely be an E-ride
at Disneyland.

Yeah, it's a roller coaster, all right.

We ought to be reaching that old mine
pretty soon.

Let's roll on.

Hey, there she is.

Ten strike mine, up ahead.

Where do you think they stored the
dynamite around here?

Powder shack.

Look for the powder shack.

What do you say?

Over there?

Yeah, looks like it.

Cross your fingers that they left
something we can use behind.

Yep.

Miner's keepers.

Well, if there's any dynamite around,
it'd be in here.

Look at that.

Plenty for what we need.

Oh, right.

You always did have great moves.

Wonder if I could sue the builder.

You know this building's coming down
with the first strong wind.

Hey, you want to live forever?

Thinking about it.

Stuff's been here for a while.

Yeah, it could be touchy.

I'll see what we got here.

It's dry.

Yeah, too dry.

I bet you a lot of the nitroglycerin's
leaked out already.

Well, let's try it.

Pure nitro.

Stuff will go off if you sneeze.

Let's try not to sneeze.

Stuff works good.

Well, that may be unstable.

I mean, there's nothing worse than pure
nitro.

Still, that's gonna be fun, putting it
on my fire.

Two.

Three. Oh!

Okay? Yeah. How's that feel? Good.

Good. What was it you said to me one
time? You'd rather be burned than bored?

Sure would, and you know all about that,
Mac.

Yeah, but I'm not married.

Laura's the reason I gave it up. There's
no question about that. I have no

regrets. You know, Laura, I'm starting
to understand what Bill used to do.

He was fighting something like that to
scare the hell out of me.

Put out the fire, bring in the well.

That's all I want.

And then I'll settle down. I'll get fat.
I'll have kids.

I'll tell dumb stories about how great I
used to be and how we put out that

fireman. I just love Bill so much.

And there's something in him that really
scares me.

Come on, this is one last time, man. One
last time. It's all I want, okay?

It's a rush, Mac.

You got that right.

Come on.

All right, let's do it.

All right.

You know, back in the 1920s, they used
to truck nitro out to the fields.

Yeah? Yeah.

They used to call that suicide run,
didn't they? You scared.

You bet. Me too.

Ain't it great?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Laura, you really think we've still got
a chance?

Bill and MacGyver together?

They can work miracles.

We got to get this hose laid out before
they get back.

I'll unwrap it.

Okay.

Give me the connection.

All right, take it.

You ever drop one of these? Not
recently.

You? Well, the Oklahoma guy once bet me
that I couldn't balance to stick a

burning dynamite on my forehead.

Well, what happened?

I blew my head off.

Hello, MacGyver.

You know what I said about blowing my
head off?

Joke, man.

Dumb joke.

Be right back.

Oh, darling.

Okay.

You better hurry.

Oh, my.

Hand me your case.

Got it?

That's definitely not going to work.

Bill?

Take this case. There's only one good
reason why.

Laura, get out of here.

Take it.

Okay.

You're a gentleman, aren't you?

Well, that's a big gentleman.

make you well

let's get this fire food

on the road all

right first thing we got to do is build
a little cradle

for that nitro hey these wagon springs
ought to give that stuff a safe ride

And some nice absorbent sand in case
anything drips out.

Hey, I'm with you, Mac.

I want those blasting sticks to feel
real comfortable on the ride back.

Listen, Bill, you know any other way
home besides that washboard road we

took? You don't want it to be too easy,
do you?

Well, Nitro looks cozy.

Well, terrific.

Just 54 bumpy miles to go.

Watch that back wheel, Mac.

Here comes the ditch.

Could you widen out a little, please?
Thank you. You're fine.

Fine.

It's okay.

I'm sure we'll know when it's not.

Oh, boy, you're real comfort.

Did you use the water to wet down the
fire?

No. The firefighters.

Most importantly, the explosives.

You go in carrying an explosive charge.

It has to keep being hosed down so it
doesn't just blow up from the fire.

Okay, Pete. Got it.

You rig the charge so that they can go
right into the gut of the fire. And when

it explodes, it eats up all the oxygen.
Oxygen and...

Blows out the fire like a birthday
candle.

Simple, huh?

Yeah, when it worked.

You know, Laura's real shook up over
what happened in that last fire.

It ain't my happiest memory either.

Hey, where's that bump?

What happened in that fire?

Oh, come on. That's a long story.

I'll tell it to you sometime.

Just dip in one toe at a time.

See? No problem.

What was it you were saying?

Must be one of those days.

Your Lincoln spring is busted.

Got a ballpoint pen?

The one in the glove compartment.

Should I bother to ask why?

Your Bat Nav is pretty good.

Just get us back.

Boy, I thought you were having fun.

Well, yeah, with this oil under that
rig, I think I can handle being rich.

Yeah? Yeah.

Mansions, yachts, maybe even a new
truck. Try it, please.

again, Bill.

Hey,

how's it going?

Voila!

You forget about that new truck.

I'll take a dozen of those ballpoint
pens.

Good feeling, Mac.

We're gonna beat that fire.

We're gonna win, partner.

The eternal optimist.

That's why I like you.

wait to see Laura's big smile when we
come bouncing in there.

Don't say bouncing.

That's your seatbelt, Mike.

The hills are coming.

Everything still looks secure.

We could be in a little trouble here.

Okay. Yeah.

Let's not drop it, or we might not be
around to pick up the pieces.

Let it down easy!

Why don't we put that thing out?

Well, last time I used a heat-proof
vehicle.

Sort of a tank with an extensor arm on
it.

It was computer-controlled with a
directional mechanism for fine-tuning.

This time I think it's going to be more
like the old days.

Prayers and guts!

Oh, wait a minute here.

hear the gears grinding away.

How close am I going to have to get to
that thing?

Near enough to drop a charge down to the
well casing.

But the closer you get, the temperature
goes up exponentially.

Eight, maybe ten degrees a foot squared.

So you got to go in as far as you can,
extending the charge on the end of the

pole.

Looks like I'm going to need a longer
pole.

Or I'm going to fry.

Yeah, it looks that way.

Well, I guess I'm going to have to
entertain a couple of theories a few of

my buddies came up with a while ago.

Archimedes and Euclid, you may have
heard of them.

But we're definitely going to need some
stuff.

Yeah, we're going to need a heat shield.

Like this old refrigerator.

You lay track.

You ready?

Ready. Hold it.

Laura, fill this thermos with all the
liquid nitro you can squeeze out of

those sticks.

And need I say, be careful.

Get it down in that sand.

Okay.

Careful now. Yeah.

Hey, Bill.

Come on, we need some help here, bud.
No.

You can't handle it by yourself.

Not in there.

Bill.

I think that's my choice, son.

No. And you know why.

That wasn't your fault.

By God, three months in a burn ward. I
think that's enough punishment, don't

you? For three lives.

The guys on my crew, man, they bought
it.

They all bought it.

They're dead, Mac.

If you go in there by yourself, you're
gonna die, too.

So, no.

This one's mine.

the good, fragile himself, Laura?

I think I said that was my choice, all
right?

Better check the hitch release.

It has to open easy so the charge will
pop.

Okay, it works fine.

Now let's get it to the shaft.

That's the right amount of tension,
MacGyver!

Europe will be fried!

Laura!

Matt, come on!

Let's keep that character moving
forward!

All right.

For sure.

For damn sure.

So what's

next?

Well, we know there's oil there.

We just need to build up a new derrick.

Start drilling that hole.

Soon as I can work again. You'll heal.

I know it, buddy.

Think you ought to do that a little
sooner.

Like maybe get someone to help you.

Hire somebody.

Out here?

Where in the world are we going to find
it?

I've been wanting to take a nice long
vacation.

A little rest and relaxation.

Spend some time with friends. Party
down.

I'll help you bring in the well.

Then you're hired.

All right.

I like that. You're the best.

You're right.
